👀 Watch out, Baumann: Valencia eye up this Schalke staff member | OneFootball

Is FC Schalke losing an important staff member in their scouting department?

According to the Spanish source 'Plaza Deportiva', Valencia CF wants to appoint José Viñas as their new Technical Director.

The 46-year-old is originally from Valencia and can look back on an impressive career in international football.

He achieved his greatest professional success with Eintracht Frankfurt. As the person responsible for scouting in Spain, he was part of the team that led the German club to win the DFB-Pokal in 2018 and the Europa League in 2022.

Viñas also did good work at Schalke and helped make the team competitive again after two disappointing years. Unfortunately, it seems that the official is looking for a new challenge. So, will Valencia make a move?
